The Glenrose Unit of Dishman Hills Conservation Area consists of 607 acres of County-owned land purchased through the Conservation Futures Program and another 74 acres owned by the Dishman Hills Conservancy. This unit of the Dishman Hills Conservation Area is situated roughly in the middle of the Dishman Hills corridor that starts at Camp Caro and ends at Stevens Creek Trailhead and features mid-elevation Ponderosa pine, Douglas fir and Grand fir forest along with open meadows. The Glenrose and Cliffs trails offer several miles of trail in an "out and back" experience. The trail system can currently be accessed via the Glenrose Trailhead or Phillips Creek Trailhead (opened in 2020).
